介绍 获得L-1A跨国公司签证成为许多外国商人/企业家的最佳移民选择,特别是那些:1)已经在本国建立了美国海外公司; 2)在过去3年中, 在海外公司至少有1年的高管或经理经验; 和 3)准备在美国建立公司或将会被转到美国现有公司,继续当高管或经理。 2018年11月15日,美国移民局 (“USCIS”) 发布了一份政策备忘录 (“memo”) ,解释“一年海外就业要求”是什么意思。 如果要满足这要求,在提交L-1A申请的前3年中,L-1A受益人必须在海外公司连续担任至少1年的高管/经理。 请注意以下几点: 在所需的1年工作期间,L-1A受益人必须在美国境外; 职位必须是全职的; 受益人的职位必须是总裁或管理性质的; 和 在提交最初的L-1A申请之前,必须满足这1年工作要求。 常问问题 (“FAQs”) 1. 如果我在美国期间接受海外公司发的薪水,这时间会计入1年的工作要求内吗? 不会。只有在美国海外/境外的工作经验才算。 2. 为了商业或度假原因而在美国短暂旅行是否会扰乱1年的工作要求? 不会。不会扰乱也不会有所帮助。 Memo指示移民官在那1年工作经验里减去受益人在美国度过的时间。 例子如下: 如果海外公司于2016年1月1日开始雇佣受益人,而受益人在1年内短暂逗留在美国,共计60天,受益人必须再累积至少60天(在2017年1月1日之后)的海外高管/经理工作经验才能符合L-1A的申请要求。... read more →
